Chassagne Montrachet 2020

The 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Grandes Ruchottes is as brilliant as usual. Offering up aromas of pear, crisp green apple, white flowers, Meyer lemon, pastry cream, beeswax and freshly baked bread, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and satiny, with prodigious levels of concentration, racy acids and chalky structuring extract. Concluding with a long, penetrating finish, it's built for the cellar. (WK, 1/2021)
